Looking for something fun, ed-
ucational -- and free -- to do with
your family during the holidays?
The Wells Fargo History Museum
in downtown Portland has opened
a new exhibit that celebrates the
history of the Asian community in
Oregon and beyond.
“In the late 1800s and early
1900s Portland had the second
largest China Town in the Unit-
ed States, behind San Francisco.
That’s something that most Or-
egonians don’t know,” said As-
sociate Museum Manager Steve
Greenwood.
Wells Fargo’s connection of
doing business with the Asian
community in Oregon dates back
to the gold rush era of the 1850s.
It was an era of extreme prejudice
against Asians and many other
companies refused to serve them.
The exhibit will run through De-
cember. It includes many images
and artifacts from Wells Fargo ar-
chives, the Oregon Historical Soci-
ety and the Kam Wah Chung State
Heritage Site in John Day. The free
museum is open Monday-Friday
from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on the second
floor of the Wells Fargo Center,
1300 S.W. Fifth Ave.
